This research paper: (9 pp) We are fortunate to be able to view this unique work of Donatello,(1386-1466), The Madonna of the Clouds (1425-35) at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. This small bas relief was a gift of Quincy Adams Shaw through Quincy A. Shaw Jr., and Mrs. Marian Shaw Haughton, in 1917 (catalog #17.1470) and has even been referred to as the "Shaw" Madonna. In this discussion we will consider the relationship of this marble to its original presentation and purpose; we will review the scholarship surrounding the piece; as well as review some personal opinions of the author concerning the piece. Bibliography lists 4 sources (includes 2 visuals)
